I mean there is no magic pill to fix our issues. Due to the roster he inherited he was forced to piece meal the defense together 2 years in a row. Last year it worked out, this year its not.

Lucky for us we have an incredible offense so all we need to do is marginally improve on defense and we will win. Can we make those improvements? We shall see.

He said as much after the FSU game. Something like “we’re not the team that I thought we were”.

We have 2 “upperclassmen” at CB, but it’s their first year at LSU. Alexander & Chestnut are simply not as good as JBC & Garner were for us last year.

Everyone else is either a Fr or Sophomore. We’ll finally have some experienced LSU guys at CB next year

Piece mealing a defense together who may not match up with everyone week to week is one thing. Players missing tackles, out of position, and blowing coverages have nothing to do with the roster issues he inherited.

When is this excuse going to run out for BK. He used it over and over and over to explain why he couldn't win the big one at ND. Now that a season with playoff hype is getting derailed, here comes the same excuse about personnel to save the day. "When BK has the personnel he is going to be a championship coach." I can't understand how anyone can watch that game on Saturday, against FSU, and all the big game blow outs at ND and place the blame on personnel. This is a horribly coached team right now. Call a spade a spade and stop making excuse for the horrible job BK is doing this year.
